What follows is a Gallery of Just Intervals in ascending order from 1:1 to 2:1 and beyond (compound intervals being fair game). No such list could possibly be complete (as there are infinite possible ratios), so I (----) seed it with a few important ones while I invite wiki authors to add intervals of interest as they see fit. Any frequency ratio is welcome, including extremely complex ones, as long as the wiki author has some interest in it. I welcome contributions of all sorts to the interval lore: descriptions of common usage, technical notes, poetry, links, reservations, complaints, chords that feature it, edos that approximate it, intervals that are functionally (or emotionally) related to it, nicknames, love letters, fan art, etc. As the experience of an interval is deeply personal and depends hugely on experience (listening and composer), I particularly recommend that wiki authors sign their names. | What follows is a Gallery of Just Intervals in ascending order from 1:1 to 2:1 and beyond (compound intervals being fair game).

I offer the convention exemplified by 3/2 for the perfect fifth (rather than 2:3 or 3:2 or something else), not because that way is right, but because it is common and it seems helpful to agree for consistency sake. Also, the wysiwyg editor seems to get messed up by colons. | ||
I am personally enamored with many intervals: both just and tempered. I don't think I am the only such interval-phile. I am hoping this section will prove fun to contribute to and fun to peruse. I look forward to your contribution! | I am personally enamored with many intervals: both just and tempered. I don't think I am the only such interval-phile.
